The First Christmas Street Light Musical Tunnel in the Philippines Now Dancing at Tiendesitas Ortigas East

Tiendesitas Ortigas East, a shopping and family entertainment destination owned by Ortigas & Company, opened its new attraction for the Christmas season - the Philippines' First Christmas Street Light Musical Tunnel.

Set up outside Tiendesitas, it is patterned after holiday light tunnels of foreign cities like Kyoto in Japan, Vancouver in Canada and Norwich in the United Kingdom.

“We’re very excited about our new feature for what we now call Ortigas East, formerly Fontera Verde a 16-hectare estate here in Pasig City. This is the very first light tunnel in the Philippines, which we are very proud to introduce. It is really intended to make the place much, more lively and create a Christmas spirit,” Ortigas & Company president and chief executive officer Jimmy Ysmael told Philstar.com.

“While others are content in stringing Christmas lights on lamp posts and buildings, they have taken it to a higher level,” said Pasig City Mayor Bobby Eusebio in his speech. “This is Christmas light tunnel certainly exceeds our expectation and the city government is privileged to be a witness to this joyful celebration. Thank you for opening your hearts in making Pasig City, a happy city,” the mayor added.

HOW TO GET THERE

Tiendesitas is located near the junction of C5 and Ortigas Avenue in Ugong, Pasig. I can be easily accessed by taking Julia Vargas Avenue from Ortigas Center (SM Megamall) or Ortigas Avenue if you are coming from San Juan or Quezon City.

Isla Verde is a paradise in Batangas. It has a pristine view of nature and a crystal clear water. Why do you have to go to far places if theres a hidden heaven on earth near the Metro Manila? I would highly recommend this place 💙
